I also get the same kind of crashes of gnome-screenaver daemon as soon as "gnome-screensaver-command -a" is used. Please note, however, that this happens with a remote X connection to a Sunray. But the stacktrace looks quite similar. I Have started "/usr/bin/gnome-screenaver" with the option "--no-daemon" and then when issuing the "/usr/bin/gnome- screensaver-command -a" command to activate the screensaver the daemon immediately exists with a Segfault. Here is the stacktrace:
